They fill me up like no other nut and I also eat less because of the taking off the shell. It is like forced mindful eating when you have to shell them!

My family has a bizarre obsession with pistachios. We are VERY particular about the quality, and everyone loves when we find a good brand. I need these nuts because lately we haven’t found any good ones, and all of my uncles will worship me forever.
I know these are made by POM yes (or at least owned by the same people)? That makes me SO excited because I am really passionate about the company.

I love pistachios because they always remind me of my dad and we’d sit around in the winter eating them together while watching the Utah Jazz games.
Mary — December 17, 2009 @ 9:53 am
I adore pistachios! I eat them almost every day.
kelsea — December 17, 2009 @ 9:54 am
good protein source and more per serving than other nuts.
Sami — December 17, 2009 @ 9:54 am
I love them because they’re so versatile! I can put them on salads, eat them by the handful, mix them into pudding, bake them in bread, or whatever! Plus they’ve got the coolest green color to them
Mariel — December 17, 2009 @ 9:54 am
They promote mindful eating since you have to crack the shells!
Amanda — December 17, 2009 @ 9:55 am
They are fun to eat!!!
Erin — December 17, 2009 @ 9:55 am
Pistachios remind me of my dad – he loved to eat them by the truck load!
Laura — December 17, 2009 @ 9:55 am
I love them because they are the healthiest of the nuts and you have to crack them out of their shell before you eat them, meaning you will probably eat less! They are so tasty and different from all other nuts too, in my opinion!
jperonto — December 17, 2009 @ 9:55 am
I love pistachios because my dad always ate them when I was little and introduced me to them. Makes me think of him when I eat them so it’s a happy food!
Sara — December 17, 2009 @ 9:56 am
I love the crunch!
Emily — December 17, 2009 @ 9:57 am
I love pistachios for their portion control. Since you have to take the time to shell them, I tend to automatically control myself. At least that’s what I tell myself!
Jennifer — December 17, 2009 @ 9:57 am
Oh my gracious, yum! We always got my dad a bag for Christmas but, poor guy, we’d always eat them before he could get to them!
keilah — December 17, 2009 @ 9:57 am
I love them because they are so good! My husband loves them more and would go crazy over this giveaway!
Valerie — December 17, 2009 @ 9:57 am
I love the subtle flavor of pistachios. I have fond memories eating them at Christmas time with my dad, and my fingers turning red from the special dye on the shells for the holidays!
Janna (Just Flourishing) — December 17, 2009 @ 9:57 am
LOVE pistachios! Actually this giveaway might not be so good for me… I might eat the whole bag!
Meg — December 17, 2009 @ 9:58 am
They’re packed with nutrients – and think about it, they’re the prettiest color nut
green!
Sarena — December 17, 2009 @ 9:59 am
Seriously, who doesn’t like pistachios? YUM…pistachio ice cream!
Jamie Z. — December 17, 2009 @ 9:59 am
They’re just SO delicious!!! And it’s fun to crack them open!
Jackie — December 17, 2009 @ 10:00 am

But why not less bags to more people! I wish these giveaways would spread the wealth!!!
Bethany — December 17, 2009 @ 10:00 am
I love them because they are fun to eat and have tons of health benefits!
Christine — December 17, 2009 @ 10:01 am
I love pistachios and often forget to buy them. If i won these, I’d not only give several as gifts, but I’d look up lots of new pistachio recipes.
Tammy — December 17, 2009 @ 10:02 am
I love them! And I love pistachio pudding!
Meg @ Be Fit Be Full — December 17, 2009 @ 10:02 am
I have a half eaten bag of Wonderful Pistachios in my pantry at the moment so I will need to replenish my stash soon!
Katie — December 17, 2009 @ 10:02 am
I love that they’re almost chewy instead of super crunchy – this would be a great win!!
Heidi — December 17, 2009 @ 10:02 am
you can’t eat just one – but I’m sure I could eat 12 bags
Jessica P. — December 17, 2009 @ 10:03 am
I’m not a big nut person, but I love pistachios! I’m not sure why, but I do love the green color
Joanna — December 17, 2009 @ 10:03 am
They’re sort of sweet and savory in one!
Marie-Josee — December 17, 2009 @ 10:03 am

i love everything about them!
Jenn — December 17, 2009 @ 10:03 am
I LOVE pistachios–because they’re delicious, keep me full, and help me with mindful eating because of the shells:-). Thanks for a great giveaway!
kristin — December 17, 2009 @ 10:04 am
pistachios are good – but my favorite nut is a spanish peanut – love how salty they are!
laurie — December 17, 2009 @ 10:04 am
I love them because they take so long to peel and eat!
Sherry — December 17, 2009 @ 10:04 am
I love pistachios because they’re full of healthy fat and oh yeah, they taste good too!
Rebecca — December 17, 2009 @ 10:04 am
they are lower in calories than most nuts but still have great health benefits, what more could you ask for?!
Lauren — December 17, 2009 @ 10:04 am
I love pistachios because they’re delicious and so versatile–they are great plain, on salads, in desserts, etc.
Sue-Ellen — December 17, 2009 @ 10:04 am
I love to use them in desserts!
Liz — December 17, 2009 @ 10:04 am
because they’re yummy & fun to break open

Becca — December 17, 2009 @ 10:10 am
They are so sweet and smooth!
Tiffany — December 17, 2009 @ 10:10 am
I love pistachios, especially when you put them crushed up in baked goods.
Tracy — December 17, 2009 @ 10:11 am
So crunchy and satisfying!
Missy Maintains — December 17, 2009 @ 10:11 am
I love them because they are a fun snack to munch on and are also very filling and high in protein!
Jackie — December 17, 2009 @ 10:11 am
Love the protein! and that my whole family likes to eat them together!
Danielle — December 17, 2009 @ 10:12 am
I love pistachios in salads, desserts, and just by themselves!
Holly S. — December 17, 2009 @ 10:13 am
I like cracking them open with my teeth–gross, I know!
Pam (Pamcakes and Eggs) — December 17, 2009 @ 10:13 am
I love pistachios because they always remind me of being a kid during the holidays. I mom would always buy them then and we’d eat them with my dad. Good memories.
Rebecca — December 17, 2009 @ 10:13 am
I used to eat pistachios with my father when I was little! I love them. So good and so healthy!
Corinne — December 17, 2009 @ 10:13 am
Pistachios are wonderful – I just made fresh pistachio butter last night and had it for breakfast. YUM!
Courtney — December 17, 2009 @ 10:14 am
they’re fun to open and taste great!
Theresa — December 17, 2009 @ 10:14 am
Pistachios make you think about how many of them you are eating, rather than just throwing a handful of them in your mouth. It has been way too long since I’ve had any of them!
Danielle — December 17, 2009 @ 10:14 am
I love plain, raw pistachios by themselves. However, my favorite family grocery store makes homemade pistachio muffins that are amazing!
Sue — December 17, 2009 @ 10:17 am
I love how some of them are such a vibrant green color (my fav). My favorite way to eat them is popping off the shell…I like to work for my food sometimes!
Erica — December 17, 2009 @ 10:17 am
I love pistachios because the only time of the year I ever have them is Christmas. My great grandma said they were a christmas nut so now we only eat them at Christmas time!
Amy — December 17, 2009 @ 10:17 am
I love that you have to crack the shell to eat them-it makes me feel like I’ve earned my snack! And they’re so good crushed on top of an arugula salad!
Steph — December 17, 2009 @ 10:18 am
I am entering this contest for my husband, He loves pistachios! I even put them in his stocking one year.
Abby — December 17, 2009 @ 10:18 am
MM I love how soft they are.. and they have a distinct taste that is like no other nut! And cracking the shell is always fun!
TM — December 17, 2009 @ 10:18 am
I recently discovered pistachios and LOVE them… so much easier than peanut shells, too!
Katie — December 17, 2009 @ 10:18 am
i love almonds because they are sooo good for you, but i’m sure i will love pistachios also!
greenbean — December 17, 2009 @ 10:19 am
so yummy! i love them b/c they are green
, salty, crunchy, and a little sweet. i just discovered them for myself a few years ago and so they are still such a special treat to me.
Deb S — December 17, 2009 @ 10:19 am
I love baking with pistachios, so these would definitely come in handy!!
Christa — December 17, 2009 @ 10:19 am
pistachios taste great, and are a healthy snack.
Mallory Nagel — December 17, 2009 @ 10:20 am
So fun to crack and bake with <3
Elysha — December 17, 2009 @ 10:20 am

Jaclyn — December 17, 2009 @ 10:20 am
They are fun to open!
Lloyd Taylor — December 17, 2009 @ 10:21 am
Pistachios are my favorite after gym workout super food!!
Erin — December 17, 2009 @ 10:21 am
I LOVE pistachios. They are so good mixed into Greek yogurt!
Amy B — December 17, 2009 @ 10:22 am
I love them (nuts in general) because they are usually that extra “crunch” you need to make any recipe a little better!!!
CaSaundra — December 17, 2009 @ 10:22 am
I love pistachios because they take a while to open, and then it seems you just eat the right amount!!
Ildie — December 17, 2009 @ 10:23 am
Pistachios have been my favorite nut since I can remember. One of the healthiest ones too. Heck, my favorite ice-cream flavor is pistachios. My love runs deep! DEEP!
Amy E — December 17, 2009 @ 10:23 am
I love pistachios! I grew up eating them with my father (it was his favorite!)
Dorothy — December 17, 2009 @ 10:23 am
Pistachios are great in baking, and plain! And, they’re fun to eat!
Maureen — December 17, 2009 @ 10:24 am
Sooo salty and delicious!
Morgan H — December 17, 2009 @ 10:25 am
I can eat pistachios by the handful! These bags would get a lot of attention at my house
Julie @savvyeats — December 17, 2009 @ 10:25 am
I love their green color and salty-sweet flavor!
Amanda @ Cakes and Ale — December 17, 2009 @ 10:27 am
My hub got me into pistachios… they’re such a great snack! I really love pistachio ice cream too… maybe I’ll make some if I have 12 bags of them!
Katie (Life Discombobulated) — December 17, 2009 @ 10:27 am
Pistachios are so great to cook and bake with, but I love them all on their own, too!
ashley — December 17, 2009 @ 10:27 am
I’ve loved pistachios ever since discovering pistachio pudding – nom nom nom!!
Rachel — December 17, 2009 @ 10:28 am
I love pistachios because they have the best flavor and make a great snack!
Emily G — December 17, 2009 @ 10:28 am
They are like the under rated nut because they have a great taste, protein, and satisfaction ability BUT I think that website you once posted on her says they have even more antioxidants
eliza — December 17, 2009 @ 10:28 am
YUM pistachios are so yummy for a snack!!
Kwan — December 17, 2009 @ 10:29 am
Love love love my favorite nut the pistachio!!
Meg — December 17, 2009 @ 10:30 am
I love the unique flavor of pistachios and they are fun to crack open!
Amy S. — December 17, 2009 @ 10:30 am
I love them because they go sweet or savory! You can make biscotti with them, gelato, salt/spice them up for a treat on their own. They are so versatile and the flavor is amazing!
Leanne — December 17, 2009 @ 10:31 am
The shell, the crunch, the flavour – it’s all wonderful.
Michelle — December 17, 2009 @ 10:31 am
I love pistachio’s because I can eat MORE of them for fewer calories than all other nuts (even though they’re smaller, I love all things mini!). I think they also taste THE best in all the goods that i love baking, for example GRANOLA and biscotti!!!!! Yup, therefore, i would LOVE to win!
Rae — December 17, 2009 @ 10:32 am
YUM!!! I love that there are 49 nuts per serving, instead of about 20 for almonds…and it takes me longer to eat them because of the shells
maureen — December 17, 2009 @ 10:32 am
I like them because there are time when you need something that has a bit of a crunch to it. It has a nice taste with it not being over powering when paired with other foods.
Shannon (The Daily Balance) — December 17, 2009 @ 10:32 am
Love pistachios! They are they star ingredient in my favorite cookies I make – pistachio cranberry whole wheat cookies dipped in white chocolate!
Ameena — December 17, 2009 @ 10:32 am
My dad loves them and so of course I had to start loving them!
Jenny — December 17, 2009 @ 10:33 am
I love pistachios because you eat a lot less of them because cracking the shell takes up some time so even if your ravenous you won’t overindulge.
photodelicious — December 17, 2009 @ 10:33 am
because they are interactive
Nicole — December 17, 2009 @ 10:33 am
My favorite!!! I would love to win.
Julie — December 17, 2009 @ 10:33 am
Love pistachios! They make great additions to just about anything!
Mary — December 17, 2009 @ 10:34 am
These are by far my favorite nut! My dad and I use to eat the red ones together when I was little…good memories of my child hood.
Laura — December 17, 2009 @ 10:34 am
I love pistachios because they are one of the few nuts that require some work to eat.. so they are not gone in 10 seconds! They taste yummy, too!
Sarah — December 17, 2009 @ 10:34 am
This is strange but I have only had pistachios one time! I do like them, I just never think of them when I’m buying nuts. My favorite is probably pecans but I liked the mixed nuts the best because you get a little bit of everything.
Suzanne — December 17, 2009 @ 10:34 am
MMM. I love pistachios almost as much as my dad does. My mom’s poppysed pistachio cake is also to die for!
Frances — December 17, 2009 @ 10:35 am
I love pistachios because they make great macaroons
celiz — December 17, 2009 @ 10:35 am
I am more mindful of my snacking when I have to shell each one!
Julia Filer — December 17, 2009 @ 10:35 am
My mom and I both love pistachios! They’re so cute and crunchy!
Aileen — December 17, 2009 @ 10:35 am
I love pistachios! They are the best when combined with dried cherries and white chocolate chips
jds — December 17, 2009 @ 10:36 am
i love pistachios, i always forget to buy them!
jenn. — December 17, 2009 @ 10:36 am
quite simply..they’re so yummy..i’m not really a fan of peanuts..but give me a ba of pistachios and its over..
michelle — December 17, 2009 @ 10:37 am
ahhhh pistachios!!! i love them because i can’t get enough!! they’re unbelievably addicting and kind of fun to eat
Rachael — December 17, 2009 @ 10:37 am
I use to leave pistachio shells all over the house (and mom’s car) when I was little. Not sure which I love more: the taste or the memory of driving my mom crazy.
Rashmi — December 17, 2009 @ 10:37 am
Look at the shells, it looks like a Dwarf Egg and the best of all the color,salty taste and the Nutrition value of Pistachios..
Lynn @ ActualScale — December 17, 2009 @ 10:38 am
I love them for 2 reasons.
Good times.
First, because they are just so dang tasty.
Second, because they always make me think of my favorite grandpa who passed away 10 years ago. He used to take me to the drive in as a kid & instead of popcorn he would always bring pistachios. They were the red ones so we’d have red/pink fingers & lips by the end of the movie.
FoodCents — December 17, 2009 @ 10:38 am
Beyond the fact they taste great, I love breaking them out of their shells.
Tiffany J. — December 17, 2009 @ 10:38 am
Besides the nutritional value, I love eating pistachios around a camp fire…so much fun to open and not worry about the shells!
Heather — December 17, 2009 @ 10:39 am
I love Macadamia nuts and Walnuts. So good! Can you believe I’ve never had Pistachios! I’d love to try them.
Food Makes Fun Fuel — December 17, 2009 @ 10:40 am
I love anything with a little natural coloration
Julie — December 17, 2009 @ 10:40 am
I love baking with pistachios – especially in biscotti!
Ashley — December 17, 2009 @ 10:41 am
Pistachio ice creammmm…i just love the word.
Morgan — December 17, 2009 @ 10:41 am
I love how fun they are to eat! I love cracking them open
Victoria — December 17, 2009 @ 10:43 am
I like that it takes a while to eat them! Makes for better snacking in front of the TV.
Katie C — December 17, 2009 @ 10:43 am
I just love the taste and putting them on top of salads! Plus my boyfriend loves them, so I pack them in his lunch, and all of his co-workers end up eating them too!
Blissful Bellas — December 17, 2009 @ 10:44 am
because like every other nut…you cant eat just one!!
Jeannie — December 17, 2009 @ 10:44 am
I love pistachios and eat them everyday! They are a healthy nut providing alot of potassium plus other nutrients. They also are lower in fat than other nuts. And they are very tasty!
Leianna — December 17, 2009 @ 10:44 am
They are fun to pick apart and eat, like a challenge!
Erin F. — December 17, 2009 @ 10:45 am
Pistachios make me think of my childhood – my parents LOVED pistachios and all things pistachio-flavored! I still love them plus they make me feel so nostalgic.
SarahD — December 17, 2009 @ 10:45 am
I love pistachios more than chips, that salty flavor is just so good. And I like that you have to work to eat them!
caroline — December 17, 2009 @ 10:47 am
My favorite nut! I chop them up and put them into chocolate chip cookies .. totally beats walnuts!
laura — December 17, 2009 @ 10:48 am
I love nuts because they taste yummy and are full of healthy fats, proteins to keep you full! I’ve only had a pistachio a few times, but they were awesome and want some more!!
denise — December 17, 2009 @ 10:50 am
I love the good fats and I never eat as many as other nuts because I have to crack them. Healthy and fun moderation:)
Lele — December 17, 2009 @ 10:50 am
Hahaha I finished one of those bags literally two days ago. It would be ridiculously awesome to get restocked for free so soon!
Pistachios are my favorite nuts because they are fun to eat (yay cracking!) and have a wonderful unique flavor and are the most nutrient dense of any nut (which I totally learned on the Wonderful Pistachios bag!)
kyle — December 17, 2009 @ 10:50 am
Its deffinately a toss-up between pistachio’s, almonds, and cashews. Pistachio’s are good because you can suck on the shell, then ditch it, and eat the nut! kind of like a “two-fer”
Blake — December 17, 2009 @ 10:51 am
I love pistachios because that’s what you get in christmas gift baskets when people *really* like you! They’re the queen of nuts! And they’re also great in ice cream.
Christine — December 17, 2009 @ 10:51 am
I love cracking open the pistachio nuts. Plus it helps with portion control!
kelly — December 17, 2009 @ 10:52 am
My husband absolutely LOVES pistachio’s!!!! This would be a PERFECT stocking stuffer
Brittany — December 17, 2009 @ 10:52 am
I love pistachios! They are my favorite nut & I love the added bonus that they are a great healthy alternative!!
Lisa — December 17, 2009 @ 10:52 am
I love eating the nut and then suck on the salty shell!
Jennifer — December 17, 2009 @ 10:52 am
They are the best nut!
Allison (Eat Clean Live Green) — December 17, 2009 @ 10:53 am
They’re so fun to open!
Natalie Rae — December 17, 2009 @ 10:54 am
pistachios taste so wonderfully fatty- AND make a great ice cream flavor base*
Emily GG — December 17, 2009 @ 10:54 am
I love the taste of pistachios, I love the color too, and I LOVE pistachio ice cream:) Plus my papa loves pistachios too so it would be fun to share these with him when I go home for Christmas.
Emily J — December 17, 2009 @ 10:55 am
They are so tasty! I feel like I’m eating pistachio ice cream when I eat them.Mmmm.
Jaclyn — December 17, 2009 @ 10:55 am
I love how well they go with goat cheese
Sarah J. — December 17, 2009 @ 10:55 am
I love pistachios for the flavor of course! When I was a kid we always had them on Christmas Eve
Jessica — December 17, 2009 @ 10:55 am
Pistachio’s don’t get enough street cred. Everyone praises almonds, walnuts, peanuts, etc but no one talks about pistachios! They are DELICIOUS. Pistachio ice cream anyone? Yum!
Kristen @ Change of Pace — December 17, 2009 @ 10:55 am
They remind me of my grandpa. So weird. I think someone else wrote that too. Do all grandpa’s eat pistachios?! Anyways, I do love them on salads and just as a snack. I like them better than almonds… More buttery and salty
Crystalis! — December 17, 2009 @ 10:56 am
Pistachios are the most interesting nut they are green, tasty and overlooked. And pistachio butter is an even better crack than peanut.
Jamie — December 17, 2009 @ 10:57 am
I love pistachios for their taste and nutritional benefits. Plus I love cracking open the shells because it gives me time to realize how many I’m eating in one sitting!
Megan — December 17, 2009 @ 10:59 am
I love eating pistachios when I’m craving something crunchy/salty. They hit the spot, and are much better for you than potato chips!
Kristen — December 17, 2009 @ 10:59 am
I love pistachios because you have to work a little to get at them
Lauren — December 17, 2009 @ 11:01 am
i love them because they taste “meaty”. do you know what i mean?
chau chu — December 17, 2009 @ 11:02 am
i have two bags of these sitting at home!!! easily one of my favorite nuts!!!
Rebecca — December 17, 2009 @ 11:04 am
Pistachios and cranberries make pretty christmas colored biscotti!
Diane — December 17, 2009 @ 11:04 am
Pistacios are delicious! Great for camping!
Kate G. — December 17, 2009 @ 11:04 am
i like that you’ve gotta work for it to get the to the good stuff!
Caitlin — December 17, 2009 @ 11:04 am
I love pistachios because they remind me of Christmas time with the family, they are a true staple of our holiday celebrations
Denise — December 17, 2009 @ 11:06 am
Pistachio nuts are fun, they come in their own easy to open wrapper.
Maggie — December 17, 2009 @ 11:06 am
I love pistachios and pecans- pistachios because they’re salty, pecans because they’re sweet, and because they both go with chocolate!
Jessica — December 17, 2009 @ 11:06 am
Salty and delicious!
Shannon — December 17, 2009 @ 11:07 am
Besides the wonderful taste, I love them because they remind me of my dad–they’re his favorite kind of nut!
Alene — December 17, 2009 @ 11:07 am
I love the color and how they taste.
Adriane — December 17, 2009 @ 11:08 am
Pistachios bring up a lot good memories for me. My father used to eat them by the bagful and my brothers and I would always beg for a taste. Of course he shared! I have loved them ever since!
Dima — December 17, 2009 @ 11:09 am
I love all types of nuts – pistachios included. Plus, it doesn’t hurt that you have to “work” to get to the nut – keeps portions in control!
Jessica @ Dairy Free Betty — December 17, 2009 @ 11:09 am
I lovvvvvvvvvvvve all nuts!! Pistachios are delish one of my favs!
AmyC — December 17, 2009 @ 11:09 am
Pistachios are fun to snack on.
Stacey — December 17, 2009 @ 11:11 am
Taking the time to crack open those salty pearls of nutty deliciousness really helps me pace myself. I need to pace myself; I eat entirely too fast!
Haley — December 17, 2009 @ 11:11 am
I really love the crunch of roasted almonds but would like to add some variety to my snacking.
Leah @ L4L — December 17, 2009 @ 11:11 am
Pistachios are probably in my top 3 of nuts. I love love love them. And they are fun to eat!
Heather — December 17, 2009 @ 11:12 am
they are my mom’s FAVORITE- and have been FOREVER. I love them because they are a reminder of her! (sappy, i know!)
Karen — December 17, 2009 @ 11:14 am
They are good on ice cream!!
Marina — December 17, 2009 @ 11:14 am
That’s simple, because pistachios are delicious!
Emily — December 17, 2009 @ 11:14 am

This is the best giveaway!! 12 1-lb bags!!
I love pitaschios because they remind me of being at my Grandmother’s (my dad’s mom) when I was little. I feel they are a very underappreciated nut these days =).
Tami — December 17, 2009 @ 11:19 am
We love pistachios at my house. I will set out a bowl of them with appetizers when we have company. They take a while to eat since you have to shell them, salty and crunchy what’s not to like.
Katie — December 17, 2009 @ 11:19 am
I LOVE pistachios! There’s something about taking all that time to crack them open and get the nut, but it is sooo rewarding!
Alyx — December 17, 2009 @ 11:20 am
I looooove pistaschios because they take so much time to open (or maybe thats just me? haha) they’re an activity and snack wrapped into one!

Jaima — December 17, 2009 @ 11:27 am
Pistachios remind me of my “gaggy” who we lost to alzheimers 10 years ago. We used to sit outside eating them while he told me stories of growing up in India.

Jess R — December 17, 2009 @ 11:37 am

Whitney — December 17, 2009 @ 11:47 am
Pistachios really are my favorite nut! They have such a distinct, tasty flavor that is addictive. I also like that I have to shell them so I don’t eat as many
Ruth — December 17, 2009 @ 11:47 am
I’ve only ever had pistachios in ice cream! My favorite nuts are pecans, but I have no portion control with them so I hardly ever eat them any more. Maybe I’d do better with pistachios?
Elizabeth — December 17, 2009 @ 11:48 am
I love pistachios because they are not something I typically buy. But, when they are around, I love them so they feel like an extra special treat.

Pistachios definitely have a wonderful, distinctive taste. And of course I tend to eat fewer since I have to peel them first!
Bree(beeskneeslife) — December 17, 2009 @ 11:54 am
I love pistachios! I will never forget the first time I had one…it was in high school and a good friend of mine and I were at her house and she started peeling and cracking these red things only to reveal a greenish colored nut inside. I was immediately hooked, and our hands always turned red and we ate sooo many. Her parents seemed to have an unending supply! Soon after I learned they are not all dyed red, and can be found in their natural state

Good memories. I also love them when they’re in baklava! Maybe if I win I’ll be inspired to try and make some….
Elizabeth — December 17, 2009 @ 1:23 pm
I love popping off the shells and enjoying them with my family around the holidays!
Ellen — December 17, 2009 @ 1:25 pm
I was never big on nuts other than peanuts and cashews. In fact, I had never tried pastacchios in my life, until a couple of years ago a friend that was hosting us for dinner set a bowl of shelled pistacchios on the coffee table. I popped one in my mouth, and WOAH. I was a changed woman. Love, love, love pastacchios. I don’t buy them often because they are expensive, but when I do, it’s hard to stop eating them. Yum.

Just about my favorite nut!! They taste really good in granola!
Mimi — December 17, 2009 @ 2:34 pm
Pistachios are my favorite nut!! They’re also really good in ice cream
ariana — December 17, 2009 @ 2:35 pm
my family used to eat pistachios on long road trips. they’re fun to eat and not as messy as peanuts.
Kara — December 17, 2009 @ 2:45 pm
I love nuts because of they are so full of flavor when you toast them!
Rachel @ Shedding It — December 17, 2009 @ 2:46 pm
I like baking with them! So good in cookies!!
Jen — December 17, 2009 @ 2:46 pm
Because the ‘work’ invovled in eating them makes them more fun!
Julia — December 17, 2009 @ 2:54 pm
They are a great on-the-go snack…I always have some on hand in my car!
Ashley — December 17, 2009 @ 2:55 pm
I love pistachios because they are green.
Dani — December 17, 2009 @ 2:57 pm
It’s silly, but I like that they are green
Christa — December 17, 2009 @ 2:59 pm
I love cashews and pistachos-must be that salty crunch!
Jaclyn — December 17, 2009 @ 2:59 pm
i love de-shelling them.
and i love how salty they are!
Carly — December 17, 2009 @ 3:03 pm
I love them in many forms: in a baked good, encrusting something, or just plain. YUMMY!
sue — December 17, 2009 @ 3:04 pm
they’re great healthy snack when i’m craving something salty and crunchy!
Pamela — December 17, 2009 @ 3:07 pm

Danica — December 17, 2009 @ 3:09 pm
I LOVE pistachios because they are the lowest fat nut and you get sooooo many in a serving
Laila — December 17, 2009 @ 3:10 pm

Sara — December 17, 2009 @ 3:10 pm

beth — December 17, 2009 @ 3:13 pm
I actually really like the skin that is inside the shell. Extra fiber
megan — December 17, 2009 @ 3:14 pm
Pistachios are definitely my favorite nut! They’re so fun to crack open and I’m addicted to the salt
Ashlee — December 17, 2009 @ 3:18 pm
I love pistachios because they taste soooo good. Also, as a bonus, pistachios are my favorite color!
blair — December 17, 2009 @ 3:22 pm
looooove pistachios! I love to make my own pistachio larabars and I love that you have to individually crack open each nut. Requiring me to put in a little work makes the reward that much more satisfying!
Young — December 17, 2009 @ 3:23 pm
I love pistachios because it is fun to eat! I actually enjoy open the shells and also I love the color. They are beautiful nuts.
Jenny — December 17, 2009 @ 3:23 pm
There is something about the crunch of pistachios that is better than any other nut. Plus I love how you break open the shells.
Laura @ Backstage Pass to Health & Happiness — December 17, 2009 @ 3:24 pm
I love pistachios because (as I learned through your previous giveaway) they have a TON of potassium! A great and healthy snack!
Maria — December 17, 2009 @ 3:26 pm
Almonds are my favorite, but pistachios are also tasty! I like cracking the shells open:)
Gabrielle — December 17, 2009 @ 3:40 pm
LOVE pistachios, they are a great healthy salty snack!
Tracy — December 17, 2009 @ 3:43 pm
I love pistachios because they take a long time to eat! Having to crack them open slows me down so I don’t inhale them in a second!
Lauren — December 17, 2009 @ 3:47 pm
I love how they have the ability to turn ice cream green. Just kidding! They’re full of antioxidants so I don’t feel guilty when I eat them.
Divya Vikram — December 17, 2009 @ 3:47 pm
I just love to munch on pistachios as a snack!
Deirdre — December 17, 2009 @ 3:50 pm
I love pistachios because they always make me think of Christmas because we would always get them in gift baskets.
Monica — December 17, 2009 @ 3:51 pm

I love them because they’re just so good for you! And – the shell forces me to s-l-o-w down eating them!
Lynn (The Actors Diet) — December 17, 2009 @ 3:59 pm

I love them because they’re green and delicious!
mary ann — December 17, 2009 @ 4:43 pm
While they happen to be my absolute fave nut, perhaps all around snack EVER… they are also my daddios fave. Being the pricey little gems that they are this would be an awesome way for me to save a little money that I would of spent on them as a stocking stuffer for him. Plus, there’d be enough for the both of us!! Well, for a night maybe, haha
Bing — December 17, 2009 @ 4:44 pm

Cat — December 17, 2009 @ 5:15 pm
I’ve loved them since I was a little kid. I called them baby clams back in the day since they had a shell and it made sense to a five-year-old.
Chrystal — December 17, 2009 @ 5:19 pm

Naomi (onefitfoodie) — December 17, 2009 @ 5:19 pm

I love pistacios because they are low cal, high protein, and soooo delicious!
Audrey — December 17, 2009 @ 5:37 pm
I love them because they are light and tasty. Also because when ever I see them I think of being a kid and running to the Hershey stand for the elusive Pistachio ice cream during the summer.
Rachel S — December 17, 2009 @ 5:37 pm
I love them because of their saltiness, but I also love that they can be with sweet things too, like ice cream and pudding!
mila — December 17, 2009 @ 5:40 pm

LP — December 17, 2009 @ 5:45 pm

Dates + marscapone cheese + chopped pistachios = delish and easy appitizer!
serena — December 17, 2009 @ 7:45 pm
I like them because they take time to eat…can’t scarf down pistachios, it’s fun to pop them one at a time.
Travis — December 17, 2009 @ 8:12 pm

I love that they are green … they have been a favourite of mine for a really long time. I love pulling off the shell then popping the pistachio into my mouth
Lauren — December 17, 2009 @ 9:20 pm
I love them because they are salty and a little bit chewy. Plus I like that they take more time to eat so I actually enjoy them, rather than just scarfing down handfuls, which I *may* be prone to do with other nuts.
Anne P — December 17, 2009 @ 10:24 pm
